This is probably the least favorite aspirations of mine so I hardly ever do this one. However, my aspiring super sim needs to complete it. So I’m asking any Serial Romantic experts for advice on how to get him through this as quickly and as painlessly as possible. Any suggestions? And also he’s a loner so this isn’t going to be easy for him.

What part of it is hard for you? TBH sims in sims 4 are pretty "easy" (lol) and getting multiple romances isn't hard for the most part.

For the kiss 10 sims section, the kiss hands interaction counts and it takes way less time to get there then the first kiss interaction.Throwing successful parties increases charisma. I'm not sure exactly what kinds because sometimes it doesn't, but I think dinner parties are a safe bet.It'll also be way easier if you do it on a tiny lot, what with the easier skill and relationship gain. Clubs would go great too. :)

I didn’t say it was hard. I said I didn’t like it. I just thought maybe someone had some tricks to get through it a little faster. I’ll figure it out. Thanks.

I am doing the serial romance aspiration right now too, but I'm doing it within a challenge that I'm telling a story for, so it's been hard to slog through that way since I have to keep trying to tie it into a bigger narrative haha. In general though, you can plow through it pretty fast. If your sim has some reward points, you can buy the "beguiling" trait and that makes it SUPER easy to romance sims, which already isn't that hard haha, but it makes it go even faster.@greydonn I didn't realize that the "kiss hands" interaction counts for a kiss! Honestly that's gonna make things just a tad easier I continue through this aspiration haha

Hello? Did someone say Serial Romantic?Well, lucky you. The doctor is in!Doctor... Who? You might ask?Well, Doctor Love of course!(Small disclaimer - not a real MD)BlueR0se is right with their comment:"BlueR0se;c-18059216" wrote: If you have Get Together you could probably use the club system to your benefit (use it to set moods you want to grind up relationship bars in prospective people + grind out the charisma stat). Just make sure that once you start romancing folks to keep them separate/out of the club to avoid jealousy.Except that it's not 'probably use..' but absolutely use. Seen it, been there, done that. More specifically done half the town. Create a club, from the social options for club activities add: Be Romantic, Kiss, and WooHoo. Then fill up your club with as many sims as you can, start a club gathering, and engage in these club activities. With each of them. At the same location. In the same room even. Because this is a club activity that everyone is totally okay with, you can have a romance orgy/kiss orgy/woohoo orgy with no jealousy (well as long as the club gathering continues - any romantic relationships that will be build up during these gatherings may prompt sims to act romantic with each other outside a gathering as well which will cause drama. Hilarious of course.).The Free Love Neighborhood Action Plan is also your friend.Having the alluring trait helps too.Or, have your sim become a vampire: Vampiric Charm/Vampiric Allure/Vampiric Fascination for the win!Activating flirty décor objects will ease your targets into becoming more susceptible to your sim's advances.As for Charisma, you can socialize with other sims, and smooching everyone and their brother(s) is totally charisma enhancing and stuff, but since you mentioned your sim is a loner you could just park them in front of a mirror and have them practice speech ...for a few hours. Or have them sit and read through Charisma volumes 1 to 3 (also for a few hours - who knew being a bookworm scores you charisma points?)

Honestly as you work up schmoozing folks your charisma skill will rise up. When you reach the kiss 10 sims requirement, right down which ones youve kissed. It doesn't take into account past kisses and so youll have to re-kiss some sims.

My favorite way is using the bachelor/ bachelorette challenge. There are even houses and households you can download from the gallery for it. It adds an aspect of fun to this aspiration. If you just want to get through it quickly, it may not be for you. I used it for Don Lothario and had lots of fun with it.

@permanentrose I found it out on accident originally! It makes the whole thing a lot easier- it really is a difficult aspiration for me to get through. lol

@greydonn I really do appreciate the tip! Right now my sim is up to 6 kisses, all of whom I have also made BFs/GFs for my sim too, but since I have those two extra I just need a kiss for and not a full relationship, kissing hands is definitely gonna be an option I use for those ones haha. I love that the relationships count ahead of time. It would be an especially miserable aspiration if they didn't haha

1. First two dates don't have to be successful (silver/gold) so if you want to just get an average score and cancel out to make it fo faster that will count and save you time.

2. Go to specifically private locations that don't spawn people so your conversations don't get interrupted and your sim doesn't get tense.

For socialization just spam friendly socials until you get a sizeable friendship bar and then start spamming romance. If the convo goes south just apologize and stick to friendly socials for a little bit and try romance again.

Married sims tend to require higher friendship to initiate romance but YMMV.

If you have Get Together you could probably use the club system to your benefit (use it to set moods you want to grind up relationship bars in prospective people + grind out the charisma stat). Just make sure that once you start romancing folks to keep them separate/out of the club to avoid jealousy.

My sim does have enough to purchase the beguile trait. I get him that and try it. He’s a loner so he’s not that good at socializing. He doesn’t take rejection well. I did this aspiration once before and it took forever it seems like. Just wanted to get through this one fast. Beguile it is!
